Quote by Rita Rudner
Some women hold up dresses that are so ugly and they always say the same thing: 'This looks much better on.' On what? On fire?
Summary
This quote, a humorous exaggeration, highlights the subjective nature of personal taste and suggests that some women may try to defend unattractive clothing choices with such a statement. It expresses the notion that an individual's preference for a certain item might not match the perceived beauty or suitability of that item to others. The figurative reference to the item looking better "on fire" adds a touch of sarcasm, suggesting that it would be better off completely destroyed than worn.
